The principal purpose of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) is to establish policies, priorities, and objectives for the Nation's drug control program. To achieve this, the Director of ONDCP is charged with producing the National Drug Control Strategy, which directs the Nation's anti-drug efforts and establishes a program, a budget, and guidelines for cooperation among Federal, State, and local entities.
By law, the Director of ONDCP also evaluates, coordinates, and oversees both the international and domestic anti-drug
efforts of executive branch agencies and ensures that such efforts sustain and complement State and local anti-drug
activities. The Director advises the President regarding changes in the organization, management, budgeting, and
personnel of Federal Agencies that could affect the Nation's anti-drug efforts; and regarding Federal agency compliance
with their obligations under the Strategy.
